treat it like a preaseason game, play a half and a drive into hte 3rd and call it a day.

we have a bye, we dont want to take too much time off.

Play all the starters that are not dinged up!!! We seriously need to get our mojo back!! Can't win in the playoffs like we've played in the last few games.

This team needs a mental break. Why in the hell put Brees in there against Peppers.

We're not playing for history this week. Rest those who need it.

Rest them. The only reason to play our starters would be to beat a good Carolina team to gain mommentum. But I say go into the playoffs with our opps thinking we aren't world beaters, and then field an early season form team.

frick no, we play all out against Carolina. Going into the postseason on a 3 game losing streak is not good. I don't care even if the 3rd loss would be on the backups. This team is falling apart and they need a pick me up.

Red Tiger...team is mentally tired. Need a break. 2 weeks is a good break to have. Why put Brees in that enviroment on the road with nothing to play for. Peppers could hurt him and the season is done.

play until we get the lead, then take em out....the starters will feel like they won

this game is nothing but a confidence builder

I'd say play everyone for a half. If Brees gets hit a couple times before half is over, take him out. But other than that the defense needs to play the whole game.

Maybe play our 1st unit O until they get a TD, then end their regular season on that note. But I definitely don't want to see them play a full game, or even three quarters.

Playing all out is a really terrible idea. Going up against a hot team and playing poorly and losing with banged up players wont do this team any good.

yes, a half, if not a little more.

What good is resting healthy players for 2 whole weeks??

they can rest on the bye week'

they have to stay in some kind of rhythm, especially after the sub par performances the last 2 weeks
